Noah Webster's Bible 1833

   

6:1Come, and let us return to the LORD: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up.
6:2After two days will he revive us: in the third day will he raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.
6:3Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he will come to us as the rain, as the latter and former rain to the earth.
6:4O Ephraim, what shall I do to thee? O Judah, what shall I do to thee? for your goodness is as the morning cloud, and as the early dew it goeth away.
6:5Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and thy judgments are as the light that goeth forth.
6:6For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice: and the knowledge of God more than burnt-offerings.
6:7But they like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.
6:8Gilead is a city of them that work iniquity, and is polluted with blood.
6:9And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way by consent: for they commit lewdness.
6:10I have seen a horrible thing in the house of Israel: there is the prostitution of Ephraim, Israel is defiled.
6:11Also, O Judah, he hath set a harvest for thee, when I returned the captivity of my people.
